Skibbereen Community School were absolutely thrilled to be asked to support the annual Cara House Coffee morning. We were also delighted to support the St. Vincent de Paul collection there too.

Lots of our students are pictured below and there is no doubt the smiles say it all. Our students have now forged strong bonds with people in Cara House. Our students and the older generation have lots in common as we all love meeting people and enjoy the opportunity to support different initiatives.

We have more exciting plans going forward and the countdown has already started for next year. As a school we will continue to support Cara House in whatever way we can in the future.

Jim, one of the residents, wrote a poem about Cara House and the joy we as a school bring to the place. We are really touched by this and a big thank you to Jim from all of us.

Thanks to Ms. Áine Minihane, Mr. Conor Uhl, Mr. Pat Joe Whooley, Ms. Michelle O’Brien, Ms. Liz Leonard and Ms. Orla O Sullivan for organising.
